25 Lyrics by The Kooks

10 Tracks to Echo in the Dark

2022

[Verse 1]
A fetish rosey cheeked is left alone
There is no justice
Yeah we know this from when we're young
The smoke dances in the mirror out of the gun
And she lost her sadness
In the madness she has to run

[Chorus]
Oh it hurts to say goodbye
Just when I learned not to make you cry
Life passes by in the blink of an eye
You know to me, girl, we'll always be 25
These tears will dry
These tеars will dry
But it still hurts to say goodbye

[Verse 2]
She doesn't noticе
As the disguises enter the room
The look of the the flower
The casual killer lights up the gloom

[Chorus]
Oh it hurts to say goodbye
Just when I learned not to make you cry
Life passes by in the blink of an eye
You know to me, girl, we'll always be 25
These tears will dry
These tears will dry
But it still hurts to say goodbye

[Post-Chorus]
I just need more
I just need more, I just need more time
I just need more
I just need more, I just need more time

[Chorus]
Oh it hurts to say goodbye
Just when I learned not to make you cry
Life passes by in the blink of an eye
You know to me, girl, we'll always be 25
These tears will dry
These tears will dry
But it still hurts to say goodbye

[Outro]
I just need more
I just need more, I just need more time
I just need more
I just need more, I just need more time
